Following a career break, she joined her husband, Kit, in setting up Little Green Consulting Ltd, a Business Management Consultancy specialising in environmental and sustainability systems to support the business process.
In 2017, Kathryn joined Muntons plc on a part time basis to provide technical support for the environmental team. Muntons plc is a malting company producing grain malt and a range of malt products such as malt extracts, dried malt powders, malt flours and homebrew kits.

Adrian Dawson
Adrian spent 30 years of his career working in the Police Force before joining AJN Steelstock Ltd as a Health, Safety and Environmental Advisor drawing on his leadership experience from the police to deliver health, safety and environmental initiatives across a growing company.
Having left AJN Steelstock Ltd in 2020 with the intention of travelling, the COVID pandemic prevented the fulfilment of that plan. Consequently, Kit was able to persuade Adrian to join Little Green Consulting Ltd in the summer of 2022 to provide Health, Safety and Environmental support for the growing number of clients in the business.
